    Is there really a god?
    How will we ever know if there never have been any sightings of her, no proof she’s been here like some smouldering ashes of his campfire, no circumstantial evidence like something he left behind, such as a carelessly discarded empty Marmite jar, a universe or something?

    But hang on; she did leave behind an entire universe which she reportedly single-handedly created in just six days, how extraordinary.

    Well turns out that you can create your own reality with your mind, your very own universe so to speak!

    Thus your universe takes on a ‘reality’ all of its own, and if you believe that there’s a god you can find ‘evidence’ for it everywhere you look. If you think your neighbour has got it in for you then you’ll see his menacing intent in everything he undertakes.

    Of course this falls somewhat short of contestable proof of the existence of god, since the other guy will see evidence everywhere that there can’t be a god since his evidence is overwhelmingly against that proposition.

    Like where was god before she crated the universe? Since there was neither space nor time where did she reside?
    Or how did she know how to calibrate and finetune all the values so there will be a habitable universe with the possibility for life to evolve.
    Maybe she tried a few quintillion times beforehand so she knew what was exactly needed – but hang that sounds very much like nature taking is natural course, trial and error or evolution so to speak, without the need of a guiding hand of god. So let’s discard this idea.

    Or how long did she wait till she suddenly decided to ‘create’ this universe, from eternity to about six thousand years ago? But since there was neither time nor space beforehand of course for the non godists that’s a ludicrous proposition, to wait an eternity and then suddenly……
    Well could the godists explain just exactly how long an eternity is.
